Savinho | City reject Spurs approach

[p.taker]

This guy can't even find a goal from 10 yards

Must be going wide

 

[bluealf]

Based on what exactly??
A couple of starts and a few sub appearances more than 12 mk this ago before he broke his leg!

I mean, Bobbs turning into some sort of mythical football player.

He's had 17 appearances for city and scored 1 goal. That's it. Most of those off the bench.

Its just bizarre that everyone talks him up into some Angel Di Maria Wonder kid and should start for a new look city side.

Good lord, I hope he is better than that ex rag **** tbh

Wish I could create a poll for this, but would you sell Savinho for £55m, and buy Rodrygo for £95m, or just keep Savinho?

Or get rid of one and not buy the other,who is a mirror image of the one you are getting rid of.

As disappointing as it would be to lose him, it does seem like it's come entirely from him rather than the club. Either he isn't interested in fighting to be our first choice winger or Spurs are offering him a healthy pay rise, if not both

In whatever case, good luck to him. I'm sure we'll be fine in the long run

Most sensible post on this thread.

Can’t believe we are doing business with Levy screw the **** if we are tho.

 

[decmancity]

hes played 3000 mins. 7th most used player last season. Played the most mins out of anyone in CWC. He got plenty game time

Whats last season got to do with what I said?

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

I like Sav but I think the harshest thing I can say about him is that he's about Spurs's level.

 

[loio]

I hate it, and play him on the left, Doku will never be a double digits points producer.

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Still young and has plenty of wriggle room for development. We gave Gabriel Jesus time to try and make a mark at CIty.

Jesus scored over 90 goals for us I'd say he did make a mark. He's been good for Arsenal when fit aswell.

Worse things could be said about someone that turned 21 in the spring

 

[handsofstone]

Not so, Bobb is miles ahead of Savinho, without breaking his leg last season he would have grown into a great player

Based on?

He's hardly miles ahead of him

 

[gingerprince]

Not Savinho biggest fan by some distance....
Been critical with his attitude on the pitch and
probably lump more money on Grealish to score
with a shot opportunity inside the box than Sav, but to be honest neither would get more than a
fiver. Some scream that Bobb is a better option but is he? I'm not 100% sure on that and there's
no facts/data to support that he is. [I like Oscar].
Would Sav improve this year? but would he be given the opportunity? bearing in mind the guys
brought in and fingers crossed a 23/24 Foden...
However, I'd still prefer to keep him though. He will be on low wages and has PL/CL experience.
But Its not what I think it's for the player & Pep.
If player expresses wish to leave then Pep will let him go and Club will sell him [if sensible offer received]. I'd sell for fee at lower end but with more sensible buyback option.

Based on his coolness against Newcastle When City needed the win and KDB found him and he did a bit of magic and scored the winner

Once!!! A single moment.

That's it.... That's what everyones basing this off. A single moment.

Sometimes it's clear that a player has got something, when he did that finish away to Newcastle in a very important game late on, then you know he can do it at the top level,

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

Torn on this one, maybe more so as it’s come out of the blue.

He’s shown an improvement at the cwc and thought he was looking good on Saturday.

Whilst he had a frustrating and inconsistent first season he’s so young and will improve undoubtedly. I’d be pissed off if Spurs reaped the benefits.

I’d like to see him get another season here then make a decision from there.

 

[Paul1970]

And I guess by that logic the replacement can only come from the premier league or does what they did in spain/France/italy/Brazil matter?

What im saying is it’s now what matters not a season ago when he played well in Spain it’s the here and now . Not saying he’s crap but I do believe we need better to get back to the top.

 

[WallyA]

I dont want Foden/Cherki to play RW, they should play in the middle.

Savio and Bobb for RW is by far my preference.

Rodrygo... wants to play LW where we have Doku and Marmoush, none of this makes sense to me.

What evidence is the for this? What we do know is that the club has accumulated too many players and now finds itself having to offload young talent. The lad played 3000 minutes last year but will be moved on to accommodate players who could not and probably can no longer manage that and who certainly won’t be here long term.

We found it much easier to shift coaching staff but have found it much, much harder to shift established players.

 

[Bluearmy]

if we start o play Cherki as a winger for me it's a case of here we go again.. playing somebody totally out of their position and hoping it works. Haven't we learnt anything from Grealish, Nunes and Gvardiol

Cherki has played the majority of his games on the wing…????
